Beneath Her Pretty Dress

Neville

Beneath Her Pretty Dress

 

Now isn’t that

truly something else

something

wonderful no less ..

While no longer

taught and flat

but lightly bowed

and more

convex perhaps ..

I hereby do confess

I am already

very much in love

with what has

just begun to show ..

But for now

at least, kept safe

and warm and hid ..

Beneath her

pretty summer dress ..

              The poem's themes of hidden beauty and the complexity of human nature are conveyed through a conversational tone that creates an intimate connection between the poet and the reader.

                  Dear Sir Grandpop - - Meant to state that July is a proper girt month in which to be dropped - well at least that's what Cornish sages say.........x

                  • Neville



                    such sapience is well worth the knowing .. not only for the moment, but just in case I ever get the urge to sow a few seeds again .. 🤍 x

                      such intimacy of worded warmth
                      many a grand parent 'to be'
                      would recognise your sentiments
                      (I'm keeping everything crossed
                      that all goes well, Hyung!
                      and a champagne on ice, you know
                      to help you celebrate
                      as the thoughtful friend i am, lol)
                      🙏😎🍾

                      • Neville



                        Bless you bro 😎

                        Well, pray tell if you left it to the imagination.
                        But alas, the beauty of a blossoming womb.
                        I hope she has a great and easy birth.

                        • Neville



                          Thank you my friend .. me too 🐧💜🕊️
